While I am a licensed agent but I do not focus on MLS deals.I've been personally investing in Detroit since 2019 and have 12-doors there now.

Challenges?

If you can't keep control of your personal finances, you are highly unlikely to succeed in real estate investing.

Thank you @Joyce Beck... unfortunately with this forum we cant post any websites or any specifics for our projects.. so we wont be able to get any real help of advice for our specific needs... as I was hopingIts been a challenging climb I tell you on this level of Project... and Yes I keep forging ahead with Gods leading, guidance and strength.. step by step.Most are fascinated at how far I have come and now need to find additional investors to get to the next level... constructionI have permits and everything nowI even have a SBA approval but we are over the $5M limit so need Bridge financing to close the GAP of $2.7MI have come too far to stop now... 

Is there a specific name for this person or could it be anyone in the bank? 

Despite hiring a property manager to get the house rented, we've faced challenges in finding suitable tenants.The property is a lovely 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house that has recently undergone renovation.

Quote from @Russell Brazil: In the future, do a court records search at https://casesearch.courts.state.md.us/casesearch/If you had done that, you would have seen they have 8 failure to pay rent cases against them.I am curious Who did the initial check on this person?

If you get a bad tenant, the rest of your tenants have to live with this person until you can successfully evict them.

If a buyer has good credit he can get a personal loan to buy a property, and hence “nothing down”.  

You have to get the person face to face.Creative deals are negotiated.
